National Loop Co. 34' (5' X 12') Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 175' Lead-In for 17' Wide Driveways - E-NL17-18-175

Sized to match a specific driveway width, the National Loop Co. 34' Direct Burial Vehicle Detection Loop with 175' Lead-In is a factory-wound 18 AWG loop for pave-over vehicle detection. Connected to a loop detector, it reports every vehicle that crosses the sensing area, giving the gate operator the non-contact detection that fills one of the two UL 325 entrapment protection slots. Since the conduit protects the wire, the loop sits directly on the sub-base and gets buried under the new asphalt, concrete, or gravel surface. With the 12' side crossing the lane and about 2' 6" of clearance per edge, and the 5' side capturing vehicles in the direction of travel, the layout fits 2-car drives in newer subdivisions and homes with boat or trailer parking.

Features:

• Arrives fully assembled and ready to install under new asphalt, concrete, or gravel
• Factory-set turn count means optimal read range without any on-site adjustment
• More cost-effective than hand-wound loop installations
• Fills the non-contact detection role UL 325 assigns to vehicle loops in a 2-device entrapment protection system
• Designed for vehicle detection with gate operators, parking barrier gates, overhead doors, traffic signals, arming devices, and vehicle counters
• Wound from one continuous, non-spliced wire, leaving no splice point between the loop and lead-in to fail
• Heavy-duty, liquid-tight conduit shields the loop from sharp stones, chemicals, ground heaving, and harsh weather
